On Tuesday, PSG manager Luis Enrique revealed he was seeking a ‘different type’ of goalkeeper, having dropped Donnarumma from the squad for their Super Cup fixture against Tottenham. ..Continue Reading
Speaking to the media, the Spaniard stated: “Donnarumma is out of the squad as it’s my own decision, I am 100% responsible.”
Donnarumma played a crucial role for PSG last season, helping them secure their long-awaited Champions League title. Following his unexpected exclusion, the Italian international responded publicly.
On Wednesday night, the 26-year-old shared an emotional and pointed message on Instagram, seemingly addressing Enrique’s decision directly.
He wrote: “Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team’s success. I am disappointed and disheartened.
“I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done.”
He added: “If that doesn’t happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me, and I will never forget it.”
Fabrizio Romano reports that Manchester City have initiated talks regarding a possible move for Gianluigi Donnarumma, despite recently bringing James Trafford back into the squad.
Paris Saint-Germain are said to be asking for €50 million to part ways with the Italian goalkeeper.
However, City are unlikely to proceed unless Ederson departs during the current transfer window, making Donnarumma’s arrival contingent on the Brazilian’s exit.
As speculation around the transfer intensifies, fans were quick to notice Erling Haaland’s subtle reaction — the Norwegian striker liked Donnarumma’s Instagram post addressing his exclusion from PSG’s squad, sparking further intrigue.
Though Haaland and Donnarumma have never played together and have only faced each other a few times on the pitch, their similar age and status in world football make it entirely plausible that they share a friendship off the field.
